Did they use those 3M abrasive wheels to remove the strips?

I'm going to guess they sanded or used stripper. Reason I say that is the Concourse stripes are paint/clearcoat, and the Stripe-Off wheels are usually used for removing vinyl "sticker" type stripes (which they are good at).

Blue is correct, he just used a DA sander to remove the paint.

If I saw your rig in my mirrors, I'd probably move over a lane out of sheer fear :lol:. It's looking pretty tough.

Do you plan to install some "Chinook" graphics?

I think you have the most modified Chinook in this forum. Man, you've put a lot into it! Pretty neat.

WOW! the thread subject is misleading .. glad I clicked. Let me know when she's all done and you've got some picturesque photos. I'd like to update the random right top image with one of your rig eventually.

Haha yea she looks like a swat vehicle or something. Not sure, might ad the Chinook logo back on the top up front.
